1) Il Parlamento ha approvato, su proposta del suo governo, un decreto legge che proroga di ulteriori due anni (dal 2010 al 2012) le elezioni per rinnovare gli organismi di rappresentanza di base degli italiani all’estero, i Comites e il Cgie. This extension adds to that a year passed a year ago, the result will be the de-legitimization and the mortification of these important bodies, which would have a vital need for renewal, starting through the younger generation of Italians in the world. The government intends to pursue this policy of postponement, in support of bills which reduce the number and powers of Comites or agrees to support the representation of Italians in the world and a clear role in restoring power to these bodies?
2) now lives in Brazil's largest community of Italian descendants in the world: it is reliably estimated that about 36 million people, more than 300 thousand of these have citizenship Italian (just over half in the consular district of Sao Paulo). With many difficulties and few resources started about a year ago the so-called "Operation Task Force to allow the six Italian Consulate present enormous Brazilian territory to escape the accumulation of more than half a million applications for citizenship. The government intends to support such action, even with the reinforcement and extension of a consular network secure, and not for the size of Brazil and the large community of Italian origin?
3) In Brazil, also lies the world's largest community of descendants of the territories of the former Austro-Hungarian Empire which, thanks to Law 379/2000, was granted the right to apply for Italian citizenship. What will the government do to reduce the time taken to deal with these questions at the special ministerial committee set up in Rome and - following a specific Agenda passed by the House - to assess the possibility of an extension of the expiry of the deadline of 31/12/2010 to present those questions?
4) At the Constitutional Affairs Committee of the House returned the bill amending the law on the granting of citizenship. In that bill, aspects of Italians abroad are completely ignored. Remain so Missed the longstanding and widespread demands for extending the deadline for the grant, to allow those born in Italy has to be able to regain lost, consider finally the women subjects of right also in terms of transmission of citizenship to overcome the hateful discrimination between children born before the entry into force of the Constitution and those born later. What position will the Government in the discussion of the Citizenship Act?
5) The serious reduction in funding for courses in Italian language and culture abroad penalizes a request for an "Italian" which was recently expanded and disappoint the expectations of new generations. The Government is committed to stop the downward spiral of funding in this field and back at least to the level reached at the last Budget approved by the Government of the center?
6) The cuts of the last two financial organizations are severely limiting the operational capabilities of the centers of culture, they should be, like those of our European partners, the country's cultural outposts in areas of strategic interest. Commitments which the Government takes to put the institutions of culture conditions to carry out their role effectively? For Latin America, in particular, fluctuations in exchange rates often cut further resources for their activities. Why the Government does not adopt a system of balancing the economy, so schools can plan their activities based on certain resources?
7) cuts planned by the last two budget laws struck, as I said, the direct assistance of Italians abroad, and especially health care. Our compatriots living in Latin America has been seeking instead to provide continuity and enhance the efforts to ensure the poor Italians needed health care coverage through health insurance and other forms of assistance wherever they were in the conditions: a local health system and inadequate simultaneous availability of insurance company under appropriate conditions. What will his government to meet these legitimate and urgent requests?
8) For decades, the Italian government promised the establishment of an allowance of solidarity in favor of the Italians residing in a state of severe poverty in Latin America. No government among those that have followed so far has never kept its promises. Do not you think it's time to say a certain word ensuring vital support to their citizens to emigrate now living in poverty?
9) Social protection of our emigrants is certainly one of the priorities that the Government would face in Latin America. Why is not approved the agreement social security with Chile and are not renewed agreements with Brazil and Argentina now outdated and unable to ensure a more equitable and effective social protection?
10) The agreement against double taxation between Italy and Brazil in the field of pensions, which is written in an ambiguous way and has created difficulties in interpreting the relevant authorities. Paradoxically, all retired Italians living in Brazil who rely on retirement income above $ 5,000 are taxed twice, first at source by the Italian tax authorities (on the portion that exceeds that amount) and then in the country of residence. Despite repeated appeals and protests, Italy has yet to overcome this form of harassment tax. What will the Government to accept the just demands of our retirees in Brazil?
11) INPDAP payments of pensions in Brazil are still characterized by cumbersome procedures, delays, change punitive, exorbitant fees. Why was not yet possible to use even for Italian pensioners in Brazil INPDAP the method directly on the crediting bank account on the spot?
12) The shot that has been lingering presence of the unique instrument information abroad, RAI Italy, eliminating the Convention of Government with RAI as many as 12 million euro, makes it uncertain and worrying the prospects of the Italian system of communication abroad. Add to that the 50% reduction in the amounts allocated to the Italian press abroad, which plays a unique role in promoting community cohesion. The government intends to replenish the resources so severely curtailed? In particular, we intend to restore the Italian news in Portuguese, provided free of charge to the local information network, to ensure that the image of Italy and extends credits?
